Glenn Springer (faczen)  > Portfolio > Dirty Dozen
These are my 12 absolutely favourite images. Well actually, it started off as 12 of them but as I added a new favourite, I found it hard to decide which one to delete, so I'm up to 14 now.

Glenn Springer (faczen) > George, the Mountain Man.  This is my best effort so far in the digital art or Pixel Painting genre. The original image was taken at the High Falls Gorge Center near Lake Placid New York in July, 2008. Click "next" to see it. I did a lot of work on this painting, using many of the techniques Hilarie taught us on the course. The biggest effort (and greatest success!) was the eyes which were repainted from scratch.
Glenn Springer (faczen) > The Arrest. This was taken after a jewellery store robbery, police chase and gun battle. The photo was published in the Toronto Star and on several TV News shows.

Taken in North York, Ontario, just North of Toronto
Glenn Springer (faczen) > Café Window. Captured at the Distillery District just East of downtown Toronto on a very cold winter day. They were warm inside the café but I sure wasn't!
Glenn Springer (faczen) > Café Window. Captured from "The Docks" looking at downtown Toronto on a very cold winter day.
Glenn Springer (faczen) > Fogo Island Church. I took this image on Fogo Island in Newfoundland in July, 2006. Some Photoshop work was done to clean up the image and add the artistic effect.
Glenn Springer (faczen) > Dusk. Also taken on Fogo Island in July 2006, this wasn't really a moonlight shot — that's the sun! I like it better as a night shot.
Glenn Springer (faczen) > Firebug. I took this picture on Highway 427 near the Toronto airport. This VW Beetle caught fire and I took a series of shots. This was the best composition, but it was after the fire was out. It was awarded an "honourable mention" by the Greater Toronto Council of Camera Clubs.
Glenn Springer (faczen) > Firebug2 Painting. Car on fire August 13, 2005 on Hwy 427 northbound, north of Derry/Rexdale Road exit. The car was fully engulfed when I got there. Firefighters arrived within a couple of minutes but there were 3 explosions before they were on scene.  This was shot within the first few seconds of the first water stream on the fire.

In the original image, the firefighter was much further from the car. I used the new "Context-sensitive scaling tool" in Photoshop CS4 to bring them closer together, then used pixel painting techniques taught to me by Hilarie McNeil-Smith to turn the image into art.
Glenn Springer (faczen) > Crystal Apple. This was taken in studio for "Clear Reflections" who make this glass stuff. Photoshop was used to clean it up and I posterized it as well.
